This Hydraulic Cylinder is a core component responsible for converting hydraulic pressure into mechanical force to operate the dump body on Volvo off-road trucks. Constructed from heavy-duty steel with precision-machined seals, it ensures reliable lifting and lowering capabilities, unlike a worn cylinder that may leak or bind. Operators might notice a slow or jerky dumping action, the inability to fully raise the body, or visible hydraulic fluid leaks from the cylinder when this unit fails.
Always verify with serial number before ordering.

Flush hydraulic lines before fitting new components. Use only manufacturer-specified hydraulic fluid. Check O-rings and backup rings for correct orientation. Bleed air from system after installation.
Always consult the OEM service manual for model-specific torque values and procedures. WhatsApp our technical team if you need fitment guidance.
The first observable symptom is often a sluggish or uneven movement of the dump body during the lift or lower cycle. If ignored, the cylinder may lose its lifting capacity, requiring multiple attempts to dump, and significant hydraulic fluid leaks will likely develop. Continued operation with a failing cylinder risks uncontrolled lowering of the dump body, potentially impacting operator safety and equipment stability.
Ensure the cylinder mounting points are clean and free of debris, and that the clevis pins are properly aligned before installation to prevent binding. Avoid over-pressurizing the system during initial testing, and check for leaks immediately.
Inspect the hydraulic pump, reservoir, and all associated hoses and fittings for leaks or wear when replacing the hydraulic cylinder.
